[Hibernate-devel] SAP DB dialect

[Brad C. <bra...@wo...>]

i am writing a sap db dialect, (which is proving more painful than
originally expected :-)).

the default column name for the hilo generator is next.  this is a reserved
word in sap db and cannot be used as a column name without being enclosed in
double quotes.

two obvious solutions spring to mind:
1. change the default column name - that seems to involve changing line 31
in RelationalDatastore.java and line 42 in HiLogGenerator.java.

2. enclose column names (and probably table names as well) in quotes.  much
bigger change.  i guess this would involve changing both the ddl generation
statements and the dml generation statements.  i am not sure if double
quotes are standard, so the dialect may also need to define the quote to
use.
